Feature difference between TinyX and DirectFB?

287 Views Asked by At

I need to create a simple UI application but I'm confused which one of these two could be better feature wise. Can somebody suggest a link where I can learn the difference between these two, or anything like that.

TinyX is an X11 server. It understand most of X protocols.

DirectFB is not implementing X11 protocols. It is a library, and it is probably obsolete (not maintained very much by an active community, ...) or phased out.

Did you consider Wayland ? It is supported by GTK3 and by Qt5 !

You still need a graphics library, e.g. Qt or libsdl
